On this day in 1968, before many of you might even have been born, my uncle, Robert F. Kennedy was gunned down while running for president. Gunned down on his victory night. He left a devastated pregnant wife and ten children and a shattered extended family.

Today I can safely say that we're at highest infection rate of the pandemic. Highest number of patients calling me to ask for advice on dealing with testing +ve , highest number of rapid tests given out, highest # of curbside pick ups. God save our hospitals.
